A silent community. A murderer among them.
Ann Cleeves is the author behind ITV's Vera and BBC One's Shetland. She has written over twenty-five novels, and is the creator of detectives Vera Stanhope and Jimmy Perez - characters loved both on screen and in print. Her books have now sold over 1 million copies worldwide. In 2006 Ann was awarded the Duncan Lawrie Dagger (CWA Gold Dagger) for Best Crime Novel, for Raven Black, the first book in her Shetland series. In 2012 she was inducted into the CWA Crime Thriller Awards Hall of Fame. Ann lives in North Tyneside.
Millions will be familiar with Brenda Blethyn’s portrayal of Vera
in the television series of the same name but Cleeves’ engaging
prose provides a much deeper, subtler insight into an intriguing
and likeable character.

clever story construction make her one of the best natural writers
of detective fiction.
